Summer 2018 transfer rumours
Comments

A couple in on Aug 30th - another 4 games by then. Had from June 1st to arrange things...........there's a pre-season for a reason !!Ianaddick62 said:We have got loan deals lined up but none will be completed this week will be the excuse

Taylor and Pratley were free transfers... we've signed no one for a fee this summer so that wont change within the next three hours so this window closing today has absolutely no bearing on our business
Just means that we wont lose Bauer or Aribo
Only good thing (potentially) is the fact that Premier League sides will know which players they can loan out so will be more open to Bowyer etc. approaching them asking for some young Goalkeeper etc. (You'd hope)3 -
I am not blaming LB, but assuming the mantra tomorrow is "It is what it is and we just have to get on with it", then he will see the response on Saturday. A three-quarters empty stadium with a lot of supporters indeed getting on with other things in their lives.
I truly hopes he sticks with it but if RD continues as owner, I will be amazed if he can maintain his motivation.0 -
I'd rather he said that than lie to us. If that's the scenario then he has to get on with it.

Premiership players, even youngsters, are on big wages these days.....do you really think we'll be able to afford them ?? If we can I would imagine they will be raw & untested . No-one worth signing will be coming in. Only crocks & out of contracts players that haven't had a proper pre-season. Certainly not the ones LB said that were specifically on his radar & "not just anybody".

Else its a catch 22 for them... Can keep them on a big wage yet unable to loan them out for experience because League One clubs etc. cant afford their wages or the Premier League clubs can pay a rubbish wage and risk another club coming in to offer more1 -

could Wigan be interested in Bauer I wonder?
Burn is going Brighton but heading straight back on loan to Wigan

Very strange one, i understandf doing this with young players ala Dele Alli with spurs and MK dons but paying 4 million for a 26 yearold and sending him straight back on loan is weird.paulie8290 said:

He's a good defender, no pace but reads the game really well. Remember him being really good against us for Fulham, and was arguably the stand-out central defender in League One last season. But yeah, the whole thing seems strange to me.Covered_End_Lad said:

Right but basically what you can do is agree a loan with an agreed fee that will hit January 1, 2019. So it's basically buying a player in everything but name.LargeAddick said:
believe you can make it perm in January, not before.Redhenry said:Apparently a lot of League clubs aren't rushing to get bis done today. EFL clubs can sign a player on loan after today and can make perm the following day. Been told this, haven't done my own research btw.

Helps that he's 6ft 7in - Height doesnt mean you can jump (me @ 6ft 4in is proof of that) or tackle yet there certainly werent many aerial duels that he'll have lost for that reason in League One for that reasonSDAddick said:

Tall men cant jump4 -
Right, he's fucking hard to miss. But yeah seems good in the air, and I remember when he first broke through at Fulham I was impressed with his ability to break up play and distribute for such a big lad. I would put him in the "Good Championship Defender" category. Maybe Brighton think he's improving and over the next year could become Premier League ready, maybe they're just making a contingency plan if they get relegated.ForeverAddickted said:

We could do the same deal with Bauer. Wigan sign him & we have him back until January. Will help us now as we have no defensive cover & gives us time to get a replacement in later.
wont happen of course, but best deal all round.1 -
***Chris Parkes latest***
“I’m currently feeding Sue Grapes on the chaise lounge....well I say grapes, it’s actually pints of wine..... I’ve got loads of missed calls from Lee Bowyer, he probably has a few players in the building and I need to submit the paperwork. But what’s the rush? I’ve got until 11pm on the last day of the month”15 -
Only just realised the deadline is 5pm. Premier league clearly didn't fancy a late night sorting out paperwork then.0

It's thirsty work feeding Sue, but luckily Chris has 100 bottles of water to keep him goingricky_otto said:***Chris Parkes latest***

Deadline closes 30 minutes before home time so nobody will be working late tonight!Chris_from_Sidcup said:Only just realised the deadline is 5pm. Premier league clearly didn't fancy a late night sorting out paperwork then.
Our office staff have probably been sent home to save on electricity

Darren Bent still unassigned.0

From what i've seen if Burn he's woefull. Birmingham away when Stephens scored he was dire0

Don't get me wrong, I agree with him telling it how it is. But as you say, we all have to get on with it. That will mean different things to different people depending on what the club is offering up. The impact is there for all to see in terms of season ticket sales.Swisdom said:

Yann Technically a free agent too
Means nothing for today as he could be signed tomorrow under the Transfer Window Rules2 -
Although I realise 11pm is a bit late, esp when clubs are waiting for faxes etc, but 5pm is ridiculously early......especially when players have to travel to new clubs for medicals & sign. Surely 8 or 9pm would have been better.Chris_from_Sidcup said:Only just realised the deadline is 5pm. Premier league clearly didn't fancy a late night sorting out paperwork then.

Holmes still hasn't gone to Oxford yet. Wonder what the holdup is although being a loan it can still happen tomorrow.
Late CAFC interest? Purely speculating of course.4 -

They do have a couple of hours after the window closes to do the paper work as long as the transfer is registered.golfaddick said:
